I see my times have been added too. Not sure if this was an automatic process or done by somebody, but thanks nontheless.
Glad to see I still have a few top 5 spots in there. =)

It does read that way. Sorry didn't mean it to. Just ment it to be that i've not really set my sights on tt yet and i can't be cocky i only race flash unlike alot of the others. I'm going to be looking at some of them rapier top 10 times soon and see if i can get up there
Huge update, I've been coding new features for a week now, so here's what's new:
1) You can add/edit FLAGS for everyone who isn't
registered on the website!
How to do that? Just click on someone's name (I advise to go to INTERNATIONAL
rankings first), then at the bottom of the screen you can set the flag.
It's important to find the countries of the top players without a flag, that way
we can have a better overall international ranking!
2) Comments have appeared!! They are specific for each Mode/Track/Class/
Filter combination, I did this to have constructive comments and not just a
global shout box.
Thanks bik3rluke for the security fixes.
+ just added support for [ b ][ /b ] [ i ][ /i ] [ u ][ /u ] [ url='link' ][ /url ]
+ basic smileys
3) Redesign to make things easier to read for new users.
4) Small but useful details:
- if you click on [Mode] it'll reset the Mode to "ALL", same for Track, Class,
Filter, and Player (will delete it), without reloading the page.
If you use the website a lot, you'll appreciate this feature
- < and > buttons will reload the page correctly this time, was most annoying.
- when you add new times, the form appears on top of the rankings (thanks
chboing for the idea), which is nicer.
- fixed internet explorer compatibilities, it now looks almost as good as when
using firefox.
- you can now order all the results the way you want, by clicking on the column
header.
5) Coming soon:
- International rankings update, with score of the 5 top players per country.
- Merging of different player names (wotan idea).

now your site is almost perfect Connavar, i'll just add the venon and flash times soon (already started for flash)
and now everybody, FIGHT to climb the ladder !
Something like this should of been incorporated into HD.
I need to update some rapier records i think.
Well done Connavar. Superb
Huge thanks for all the guys who took part of that amazing project this site is !
Of course Connavar is the one who started with this idea and run that cool site. i must reckon it gaves a so fantastic 'emulation' to all those players who are fightin to reach the ultimate scores !
Keep up the good work mates
Update in the contributors section:
- 1 point is given for each record you add
- 100 points are given for each user you identify with a flag
- you can also see WHO added your times (or anyone's):
1) go to the contributors section
2) enter a player name
(or do 2 then 1)
Then you'll see who added the records for the given player.
For instance, yeldar2097 got 85 records:
- I added 8 of those
- chboing added 57
- yeldar2097 added 27
- Asayyeah added 3
Kinda useless feature but I didn't even need to code it, I just discovered it!
It just resulted from the filtering system.
Edit: LOL you can even see who added a given time for a particular event,
just add some filters, like Speed Lap / Vineta-K / Phantom,
and you'll see that chboing added that yeldar's time
Also fixed various bugs, and improved the comments:
Now you can "private message" someone:
- first choose a player (in the text field), and then post the comment
- if you want to see all the messages addressed to you, just enter your name
(in the text field)
The Comments section is used to see all the comments filtered by the filters
you choose, so you can decide to view all the comments in phantom category,
or all the comments in Speed Lap / Anulpha Pass / ALL classes, etc etc!
Now I'm working on getting the International ranking to work...
a bit harder than expected, to have a fair ranking system.
I just realized that the WOHD online records for Multiplayer are way out.
I was writing down my times when playing in a online tournament last night and I was beating nearly every track by at least 2 sec,some as much as 13 sec!.
I could understand maybe bettering times on a few tracks of a tournament by 1-2 sec,but all tracks,and by huge margins.
God knows how long it has been since Multiplayer has been updated,but looking at my results from last night, I think it's safe to say all my times for Multiplayer have been bettered,but I have no way of know what the times actually are.
The only way to access your online times is when your online,there is no personal record kept of them.
So keep a sheet of paper and a pen handy when your racing online guys,and write your times down as you get them,then enter them in Connavars site.
You might surprise yourself with the results.
I can't find the enter a new record entry anywhere now. All I can find is to edit existing ones.
/edit: Nevermind, read first post.

WOW international ranking is finally done!!
The query is incredibly long (so it takes also some time to process), but it works.
It's named "international 2" in the filters, because I also kept the original one.
For instance,
Multiplayer / Phantom:
UK is #1 (855 avg)
Wellington86, osama-bin-haydn, Greenix, kgb1971, Amorbis
France #2 (819 avg)
Wotan998, kingheim, Asayyeah, Daguet_Rapide, pirhapac
^ It basically tells you the optimal teams for each country hehe.
Elite / Phantom:
France is #1 (877 avg)
pirhapac, kingheim, Wotan998, Asayyeah, AkFurtif
UK #2 (694 avg).
Wellington86, Amorbis, benbogog, Greenix, Alejess
Interesting...
I'll have to get KIGO to put in his TT and SL times,he doesn't even appear on the International 2 Elte rankings.
Brilliant absolutely brilliant !!
You did that for HD, imagine Rob and you doing that for the whole wipeout games : database is existing through wipeoutzone records section but i guess Rob has no time for doing that kind of 'datas-extraction-transfer ' and that shall be extremely hard to modify the datas quickly to fit to your system Connavar.
I know i can dream but such a thing would be the true Bible-records of the whole Wipeout franchise !!!!
blackwiggle: at least he's in the multiplayer list!
Asayyeah: merci beaucoup!
I think the 2 systems have a different philosophy, Rob's is more about friends,
wipeoutzone members, and relies on them not lying about scores and so on,
so it can be done for older wipeouts as well, which is great.
Mine wouldn't work with another wipeout (except Pulse, and if you want I'll do it,
especially because I bought the game recently...), because it needs data which
can be checked and approved, and since there is an official leaderboard for HD,
this can be done.
Multiplayer is where I really need to pull my finger out and play more,it's mainly because of the time differences that I've neglected this,by the time a lot of players come online I'm Wiped out and ready to crash.
The online boards don't have anybody on them a lot of the time when it's good for me.
My rankings suck in that regard,too much time doing TT and SL's
I really need to up my game and help the UK close in on the French in Elite rankings. I think I also really need to learn to do some shortcuts and barrel rolls on a lot of tracks.
This is all great, Connavar, all we need now is for SL to give you a call and find a way to automatically pump the times and stats they have recorded into your database, somehow....
I don't quite understand Elite, could someone explain please.
It`s a ranking that is calculated by combining your results in Speed Lap and Time Trial
Cheers Lunar, is that just in phantom or any class?
EDIT: sorry, i have read all the thread now, which is what i should of done to begin with. I don't think i have even done time trials on some of the tracks yet!!
